      Yes, I agree with that , going to see raptor builds but not just walk arounds but seeing them in action , that would separate your channel from some others out there that just walk around. I watched all 50 minutes of this. This is definitely the direction that the Gen 3 should of gone, I agree with you they need more suspension to match the HP. Great video PILTPILTPILT

    Kevin is one of my closest friends. He’s a hell of a guy. The kinda guy you call when you’re in jail in Morocco. He will make shit happen. He’s like military and one of the sharpest knives in the drawer.
    His trucks, of course, are better than “the best”. we took a ride in this truck on a hardware run for parts when building my spare & trunk setup. Holy Sheet this thing is like- a 7000lb drag strip car that can go ANYWHERE. it was one of the most exhilarating rides I’ve been in, and I’ve raced Baja. Yeah. These things are worth every bit of $350,000. Too bad I can’t afford one!!! 😮 one can dream though. Haha.

    The thumbnail catch my attention, because I'm trying to build a homemade ford "cobra" (wanna be raptor). So I'm getting ideas on how to diy build the bulge fenders and bed sides. I'm a jeweler so I'm not sure what I'm doing here. But also have experience pouring concrete, framing walls, drywall, flooring, welding, abit of electrician experience, plumbing and every week I cut my own hair 😎. So I'm confident I can tackle my next project. But mannnn when I saw the Mexican flag on that fender, it gave me the goosebumps. Much respect for you brotha. If I ever win the lottery I'll order one just like that green beast. Saludos amigo from Dallas TX

      Some shops just prefer fox, because that’s what they know. While others swear by kings. Kings are a little more difficult to adjust. But they are also easier to service and it’s easier to get parts for them. I personally wish I was on Kings after my experience with thess race fox and trying to get parts from Fox

    Having grown up playing and racing in the desert I'm very familiar with offroad racing. When compared to a regular truck with bolt on stuff the level of performance this truck has is on another level. Also IMO anyone who build their trucks with this long travel kit must include a legit cage... If you ball it up at the speeds the truck would be capable of and not have a cage... you're gonna look like spaghetti when it comes to a stop.

    Amazing video! How noticeable is the clicking from the bypass valves when riding in the cab?

    • @KeepItDirtyOffRoad
      @KeepItDirtyOffRoad  Před rokem +1

      You can hear it in the cab. In the clips in this video you can hear it. It can get loud, specially when your going fast down the trail and that’s why head sets are a must offroad with these trucks.
      They do insulate the cab with dynamat material but because the shocks are connected to the frame and cage, all the noise cannot be dampened out of the cab. That’s why full cage builds are not for everyone

    This is a really awesome video!! I needed clarification on the talk about 1-point harnesses. You should include a HANS device if you do anything greater than the standard 3-point harness. A 4-point without a HANS device is more dangerous than a 3-point without a HANS device. Is this true?

    • @KeepItDirtyOffRoad
      @KeepItDirtyOffRoad  Před rokem

      Our discussions was about roll cages. Anything last a standard seat belt should not be used unless you have a roll cage.
      As for the hans decide, I honestly don’t know. I know it could not hurt to have one but most prerunner owners are not wearing a helmet or HANS device. Only those that are racing competitively do. And at that point safety equipment is dictated by the racing organization

    So your truck built the way it is really wouldnt be able to take that terrain at least at half the speed the HM truck was going? Or is it because your suspension isnt tuned for that currently?

    • @KeepItDirtyOffRoad
      @KeepItDirtyOffRoad  Před rokem

      My truck can take on whoops that are about 1-1.5 ft deep. With tuning I may be able to go a little deeper but not much.
      At Barstow you have whoops that are 2-3 ft deep and you need race truck suspension to handle those fast. I don’t have enough suspension travel and my back is bucking way too much to handle those.

    what is the reason a 5 point harness on something without a cage dangerous?

    • @KeepItDirtyOffRoad
      @KeepItDirtyOffRoad  Před rokem +2

      Anything more than a 1 point lap belt gives you a false sense of security. You may think you can run faster than the capabilities of the truck and if and when you get in trouble, the stock roof cannot handle a roll over.
      With conventional seats belts or a lap belt, if you roll you can move out of the way and stay safe. With a 5 point harness your strapped in and your dead the moment the roof collapses and you cannot get out of the way. There is no cage to keep the roof from collapsing on you and killing your.

      Frame, Windshields and AC.
      Trophy trucks are usually a full custom tube chassis with no windows and no comfort features. Body is all fiberglass too
      A prerunner is based on a frame truck and cab. Most of the frame is removed and or reinforced and you keep comfort features like AC, stereo, windshield, etc…. So it’s the more drivable truck. Trophy truck has to be trailered everywhere while a prerunner can be driven around the streets

The noise is made worse by the cage. Those shocks are connected to the cage and that cage tuning resonated the sound in the cab. If you do a non caged truck with his long travel kits you get similar performance with not as much sound in the cab. You can hear some of it yeah, but not as much.
